Rapid sintering protocol produces dense ceria‐based ceramics

Abstract: We report on a rapid sintering protocol, which optimizes the preparation of 0‐29 mol% Gd‐doped ceria ceramics with density ≥98% of the theoretical crystal lattice value. The starting material is a nanometer grain‐sized powder prepared by carbonate co‐precipitation and calcined with minimal agglomeration and loss of surface area. Slow (5°C/min) heating of the green‐body from 500°C to the optimum temperature of rapid sintering (T1opt, dwell time <1 minute) followed by 20°C/min cooling to 1150°C with 6 minutes dw… Show more

“…The pellet density was measured by the conventional Archimedes method ( Figure 2 ). 28 At 25 mol % doping and below, the porosity (1 – density measured /density theoretical ) of both Sm- and Gd-doped pellets was <4%. Sample pellets were polished; top and bottom faces were made parallel with silicon carbide polishing papers (up to 1600 mesh) and then washed with 100% ethanol in an ultrasonic bath for 30 min to remove silicon carbide residue.…”

“…Gd x Ce 1– x O 2– x /2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.25) powders were synthesized by a coprecipitation method. 28 A 0.7 M aqueous solution of (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 (99% extra pure, Arcos Organics) was added dropwise to an aqueous solution containing the amounts of Gd(NO 3 ) 3 ·6H 2 O and Ce(NO 3 ) 3 ·6H 2 O (0.3 M, total solute, purity 99.9%, Strem) required to provide the Gd concentrations desired. This mixture was kept at 80 °C under continuous stirring for 1 h. The precipitates were then collected by centrifugation, washed three times with water and then with ethanol, and afterward allowed to dry at 120 °C for 12 h. The resulting powders were ground, sifted through a 50 μm mesh, and calcined in air at 495 °C for 2 h. Cylindrical pellets were then formed by cold isostatic pressing of the powders at 300 MPa, followed by rapid sintering, with optimal temperatures and times as reported in refs ( 21 and 28 ).…”

“…[12][13][14] A rapid sintering protocol was recently proposed to obtain dense ceria-based ceramics and avoid undesirable Gd segregation commonly encountered. 15 In addition, many efforts have been applied to lower the sintering temperature of CeO 2 and its corresponding doped counter parts. Sintering techniques such as pulse electric current sintering, spark plasma sintering, two step sintering, and flash sintering, among others have been used.…”
